    A free, self-guided recovery journey for real life. Grounded in recovery principles, this guide offers tools, prompts, and practices to help you reconnect to yourself, interrupt old patterns, and start showing up with intention.

    I speak about how we unlearn survival mode, reconnect to what matters, and start showing up with more honesty, compassion, and courage. These talks are raw, real, and designed to meet people exactly where they are—no sugarcoating, no perfection—just the truth, and what we can do with it.

recovery, reimagined

When you hear the word recovery, you probably think of addiction, eating disorders, or rock-bottom moments. But here’s the truth:

We’re all recovering from something. As humans, we’ve developed coping mechanisms—numbing, over-functioning, shutting down—just to survive. And right now? Those strategies are in overdrive. The world feels unstable—socially, politically, economically, environmentally. Many of us are stuck in cycles of anxiety, avoidance, or despair just to make it through the day.

Recovery is how we return to what’s real. It’s how we unlearn the habits of survival—and relearn how to be human. With integrity. With compassion. With courage.

It’s not about going back to who you were. It’s about becoming who you’re meant to be—on purpose, in community, and aligned with what truly matters.

The Recovering Human offers tools and practices drawn from addiction recovery and adapted for everyone— to help you reconnect, regulate, and rebuild. So you can stop just surviving—and start contributing to something better.

A Note From The Founder

Hi, I’m Rebecca Grey. I’m a coach, a corporate executive, a former journalist—and a recovering alcoholic. I’ve been sober for four years.

For a long time, I was chasing approval, overperforming, and abandoning myself to meet expectations I never agreed to in the first place. On the outside, I looked like I had it all together. On the inside, I was unraveling. Alcohol was how I coped.

During COVID, everything cracked open. I hit rock bottom, entered rehab, and started working a traditional 12-step program. What I thought would be a last resort turned out to be a turning point.

Recovery didn’t just help me face my pain—it gave me the tools to live differently. To stop operating on autopilot. To rebuild my relationships. To show up with integrity, compassion, and courage. It also changed how I lead, how I work, how I contribute, and how I build community.

Now, I see so many others struggling—not necessarily with addiction, but with the weight of disconnection, burnout, and survival mode. They’re saying, “This isn’t working.” And they’re right.

I created The Recovering Human to share the tools that helped me—and millions of others in addiction recovery—find a way through. Tools for individual healing that also lay the foundation for collective recovery.

This is for anyone who’s tired of pretending they’re fine. For anyone who believes we can create something better. Recovery starts with you. But it doesn’t end there.

We recover together.
